Reviews in Manchester

A great place to swing your pants. Great music at the launch night yesterday. A place I would recommend for a night out. Not tried the food as yet though.

Another Tampopo! My favourite Asian eatery. This one is in a different style to the Albert Square original. Food just as good though!

We went about a month ago for a meal after work on a Friday in September. It was our first experience and one we will be repeating. The service and food was excellent and the staff couldn't do enough to make our experience a comfortable one. "Thank You" Blue Sapphire and see you again soon :-)

Love this place. Always a port of call when in town. Great for drinks or food in the best location!

Looking for somewhere to eat before the show at the Palace and our grand daughter found this place. What a find, I unfortunately had gammon everyone else had Italian food my loss. I tasted all the other diners food in our family group including the pisa - Fantastic flavours next time no gammon only the Italian food and the tiramusu is to die for cannot wait for our next visit this has to be10/10. The atmosphere is fantastic and there wasn't any drive to get you out we will be going again

Are you not doing Christmas lunches this year ?

I love this restaurant ,food is so fresh.

Having eaten at the Boathouse on 3 separate occasions inc Sunday lunch I thought it right to leave a review and say how fantastic it is. With a great choice for all courses from modern twist on the traditional to unique dishes with fresh & homemade veg, eggs, pies & meat - recommended is the black pudding, pigeon or risotto starters & pork belly, any pie or fish mail & dessert has to be the sticky toffee pudding. Lovely location by the water in summer or cozy log fire warmth for winter. Fantastic service, knowledgeable staff & great value - just go as soon as possible!

A great place for an event. can take around 350 people. The restaurant has a twenty five year pedigree too as it is the same people who had the famous Royal Orchid.

Really cool venue, that cool it has won the accolade of being one of the top 25 coolest restaurants in the UK by the Sunday Times. A great bar upstairs and a subterranean restaurant beneath. Not eaten there properly yet but loved the vibe.

A great place to stay in the Northern Quarter in Manchester. A pseudo mock Victorian pub with rooms. Prices reasonable and location great.

We like this place. A cool Scandinavian vibe. Good drinks and food and nice and bright and airy.

Lunch at Gallimores on a wild and windswept November day. I had Cock and Bull – chicken and steak in a peppercorn sauce –which was yummy and my colleague had the Hunter’s Chicken. Recommended.

Attended November 15. We had a big booking of artists who were performing at a venue nearby.The venue were helpful enough in booking us a private dining room, and also understanding that some of our party were arriving late and travelling from all over (also 2 of them had to leave early due to the event scheduling). I understand that mentioning Sugarvine almost counted as a 2-way recommendation. Not only were we assured from the website that this is a great place to dine, but the venue seemed to be safe in the knowledge that we were a discerning bunch, despite the chaotic and fragmented nature of our arrival.The staff were all very patient with our ever-changing needs and were helpful, friendly and informative throughout.We ordered a variety of drinks, beers, wines, spirits, coffees and cocktails. The cocktails looked (and tasted) really good and weren’t as expensive as we feared! Not sure if I can say the same about the coffees which did seem like a bit of an after-thought, although by then we had been moved to the bar as we had gone over our allotted time (in fairness they did give us the coffees for free). As for the food, it was very impressive! After a good explanation on the process, the menu, ingredients and veggie alternatives (of which there were several) we all headed to the buffet area, then returned excitedly to our tables, with green coasters all upturned eagerly waiting the influx of 15 cuts of meat!The waiters swarmed all over us, all keen to fill us up, explaining the cuts as they went round the table.The food was delicious, in particular the steaks, which was good that the main event lived up to its billing (not always the case in my experience).Maybe we were unlucky that the vegetarian in the group was sat nearest the entrance, but she was always first to be offered slices of meat, and the waiters always seemed to place their skewers right next to her, even when serving people sat either side of her…this wasn’t great for her. Also her veggie dish took a bit longer and by the time she had hers, we’d all been fed!Some of the party commented they felt like it was all about the beef, and within 5 minutes had filled up on beef before things like chicken and gammon arrived. Not sure if that is anyone’s fault, maybe just how it was on the night, but it wasn’t a complaint as such. Personally I enjoyed the lot and it was nice that one of the waiters, when faced with a table of 8 red coasters and only 2 green, had the wherewithal to ask if there was anything we hadn’t tried, or would like to have more of before we all finished (cue more of the Filet Mignon, which was the pick of the bunch).All in all, it was a great experience, some of our party had never seen such a concept but all said they’d definitely do it again (even the veggie)!The décor, atmosphere and presentation was all really cool and impressive and left a good impression on Spinningfields and Manchester itself.Price was very reasonable considering the location and the quality (not forgetting the quantity either for some of the more gluttonous carnivores on our table)! Would definitely recommend and looking forward to going back.

I have been meaning to try Arnero since it opened and I am very glad I did! The restaurant is owned by Indians and I was hoping for an authentic Indian dining experience and I wasn't disappointed. I had the express lunch with a chicken curry, a vegetable dish, rice and the best freshest naan I have every had. Service was was good and the restaurant itself was immaculate. I will return at night next time and sample more of the dishes you just don't find on the typical Indian restaurant menu.

Very nice food very good staff very good prices.

Top food freshly made on daily basses, traditional mediterranian/Armenian food, best sea bass and mix Mezze platter we ever had, service very friendly.

Good local pub with quality cask ales. Watched the rugby here the other day and had a nice afternoon at the Delph Tavern.
